The other nice thing with passport is that it makes it much easier to
do some paperwork. For instance, if one is hired by an employer that
actually checks such things, a passport alone is all you need to
establish both identity and citizenship. Without a passport you usually
have to find and bring along two or more pieces of paper.
Having lost a driver's license a few years ago, it is also MUCH
easier to get it replaced with a passport, |
